Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
starts playful and fragrant, on ripe apples and all sorts of herbal teas (rosehip, hawthorn), kiwis, gooseberries, copper pan, violets… It gets then delicately smoky, with also notes of old newspapers (paper and ink). Goes on with a little honey and marmalade, vanilla, hints of motor oil… Lots happening, great!
restaurant Palate
very sweet, starting on lots of orange cake, ripe apples again, cereals… Something metallic as well (old bottle effect?) It’s also rather liquoricy, getting slightly bitter after a moment (walnut skins). Lots of body considering both its age and its ABV. Hints of gooseberries and white peaches with a little caramel. Really good. The finish isn’t too long (of course) but still nicely balanced between praline / nougats and walnut skin. Less complex on the palate but it’s a very good old whisky altogether. 85 points . Linkwood 12 yo (40%, OB, castle label, 1980’s)
